Yay. Quakes are only every 10 minutes now. Maybe running out of steam.

Quote (kerwin @ July 26 2013,13:14)Ed,You are arguing with a definition from a dictionary.I haven't been following this topic lately, so I am unaware of the context you say this, but this is funny. Arguing with reality is what I see some do here. When you point that out, they defend against reality with the same delusion repackaged.

Ahh. I found a better way (by mistake).Instead of watching the video at full screen or at the small setting, try the middle size setting. The video takes up a large part of the screen and the other linked videos to the right disappears and the usual embed code appears.

Cept he believes in the Trinity. But at least he recognizes that Babylon had a Trinity. Maybe he might make that connection in the future.When you add what he is saying to the history of the Trinity, you get what looks like a full picture. I feel blessed to have watched these videos.

Yeah, I really don't want to shoot you.(Yeah, I just searched Youtube for the same title and there was a single other copy not joined to the series.)

@ princessThink of it like this. If the universe is first, then it had no cause because if it did, then it came from something and that something obviously precedes the universe and therefore the universe cannot be first. Whatever is first had to have no cause because that is the definition of first in this context. Once we understand that, then…[Read more]

David, we observe everyday, consciousness creating things, ideas, tangible products, cyberspace, AI, code, communication, etc. Never have we observed, life come from non-life.All scientists need to do is make a dead body alive, and that will no longer be true. And for that life to be new, and not the same life that existed in that body before…[Read more]

Quote (david @ Feb. 22 2012,16:10)Hi t8Are those three options the only three options?1. God2. Nothing3. Something eternal but non-personal. wouldn't a non believer say: “how did god get here?”. And then, wouldn't they ask:  “does the universe necessarily need to have had a beginning?”We know our observable universe does seem to have a definite…[Read more]

Quote (david @ July 23 2013,15:38)If by “bananas” you mean modern banana's, then I would say and I would think you would know that bananas had a lot of help from humans.  You wouldn't really recognize a banana from a few thousand years ago.  It's similar with how it's almost impossible to find a watermelon with seeds in it these days.  10 years ag…[Read more]

Regarding the expanding Earth theory.The planet could have been in a state of inflation and contracted so that the land covered the water. Then the next inflation led to cracks in the land where the covered waters of the deep spouted forth. I think it says somewhere in scripture that in the time of the flood, the land started to break apart. Not…[Read more]

True.

I think the biggest concern is they are happening in the Cook Strait, so there could be a tsunami if a 7.5 or bigger strikes. Good thing about Wellington though is you can usually head upward quite fast due to all the hills. But a Tsunami from there would strike in a matter of minutes, so no time to be complacent. Apart from a few days ago, most…[Read more]

The earthquake affected the CBD and part of the Hutt Valley, but where I live didn't get any damage. I am just glad I don't work in the city anymore. I feel safe here.And even though my house rocked and rolled. I knew Wellington would be 2 or 3 times worse.

When you come together, everyone has a hymn, or a word of instruction, a revelation, a tongue or an interpretation. All of these must be done for the strengthening of the church. 1Co 14:27 If anyone speaks in a tongue, two—or at the most three—should speak, one…[Read more]

Quote (Lightenup @ July 22 2013,18:39)I will pray for your safety, t8, as well as your family's. Do you know if this is close to Is 1:18 or Nick?Very close. Some of the quakes have their epicentre there.Please pray for him and family too.

Ha ha. True that.My money is on Jackie.

The eternal Universe Theory (Eternal Something Non-Living Theory) requires belief in the following:That life came from non-life.That the Universe can self-organise even though it possess no consciousness.That it is limited to 4 dimensions, when we know mathematically that there are many more higher dimensions.That it continues to maintain order,…[Read more]
